The Hardakers of Baildon Version of April 2020 The Hardakers of Baildon Version of April 2020 Introduction In putting together this document we have used information from many sources, including a number of people who have provided information. These people are too numerous to thank individually but, as will be evident below, we should acknowledge the extensive work on the Hardakers of Baildon done by the late Mrs R. Rennie. We never met her, but her research papers are in the West Yorkshire Archive Service (WYAS) Library. We live in Australia, so the time we have been able to spend working through her papers has been far too limited. We also owe gratitude to the late Edith Hardaker, who not only did a lot of the initial spadework in sorting out the Hardaker genealogy, but also provided a sound basis for continuing what she had started. We hope we have done justice to the efforts of both ladies in what follows. Note: The numbers preceded by a hash (#) refer to the index numbers of individuals in the One Name Study in our family history website at http://hardakerfamily.id.au/. In addition to the information from the two ladies mentioned, we originally made use of other sources, notably the IGI/Family Search. However, images of pages from the church registers from the West Yorkshire Archive service (WYAS) are now available on Ancestry.com. We have been able to check some of the information below from that source, but by no means all of it. We should be grateful to anyone who can contribute corrections or additions.

Manningham 1836 In what follows, individuals are generally listed according to their dates of first marriage. William Hardaker #58 (m. 1730) [Joshuay #14, Roger #4] Although he appears to have lived at nearby Esholt, not at Baildon itself, William Hardaker, clothier, married Mary Rangdall, spinster #223 at Baildon St John the Evangelist on 3 June 1730 by banns. (IGI M011901, WYAS). They had two children that we know of: Sarah #224, 1735, baptised 21 August at Guiseley St Oswald, daughter of William Hardaker of Esholt, yeoman. (WYAS P29/1/5). William #225 born 1737 at Esholt and baptised at Guiseley St Oswald on 24 September of that year, son of William Hardaker of Esholt. (WYAS P29/1/5). Sarah #224 married Jeremiah Ambler #742 by banns at Otley All Saints on 8 Oct 1755 (Bishops Transcripts via FMP). 3 William #225 also married – see below. We have not traced any other children of this couple. We think that William #58, husband of Mary, was born at Rawdon, parish of Guiseley, on 28 Feb 1699/17001, son of Joshua Hardaker #14 and Grace Casson #40. That idea is supported by the fact that he was buried at Baildon St John the Evangelist on 14 Dec 1777, a clothier aged 78 (WYAS). In fact, he would have been 77 and 9 months but that is close enough to be credible. Mary née Rangdall #223, his wife, was buried at Baildon St John the Evangelist on 14 Jul 1799, a widow, no age recorded (WYAS). We have been unable to find a record of her birth or baptism. The father of William senior, Joshua of Rawdon #14, whose will we have, married twice, Grace being the second wife. Joshua fathered a total of at least 15 children. He was the son of Roger of Rawdon #4, who died in 1667 (whose will we also have) and who was the founder of the Hardaker dynasty of the Guiseley area. James Hardaker #60 (m. 1731) [Joshuay #14, Roger #4] James Hardaker, a brother of William #58 above was only marginally connected with Baildon. James married Hannah Whitticker #79 by banns at Guiseley St Oswald on 7 Oct 1731 (WYAS P29/1/5). We believe they had at least four children: James #80, bap. 8 Feb 1733 Guiseley St Oswald (WYAS P29/1/5). Hannah #81, bap. 24 Jun 1737 Guiseley St Oswald. Perhaps she was the Hannah daughter of James, clothier, buried at Guiseley St Oswald on 27 June 1761 when she would have been about 24. (WYAS P29/1/5). John #82, bap. 24 Aug 1748 Guiseley St Oswald, son of James Hardaker, labourer (WYAS P29/1/5). Grace, #714, bap. 8 Nov 1751 Otley All Saints (Brigg 1912). The family were living at Hawksworth (about a mile west of Guiseley) when Grace was born. We think that Hannah, wife of James a labourer of Northcroft, who was buried at Baildon St John the Evangelist on 30 Jun 1756 (Mrs Rennie, WYAS), was Hannah née Whitticker #79. Their son James #80 married and raised a family at Guiseley. As far as we know, he had no connection with Baildon but his son James #85 certainly did – see below. William Hardaker #225 (m. 1757) [William #58, Joshuay #15, Roger #4] Born at Esholt, the son of William #58, he was, as far as we know, the first Hardaker to raise a family at Baildon.

  • Esholt, Guiseley, Hawksworth Circular. (Bluebell Woods and Golf Courses)
    LOCKDOWN WALK ROUTE NUMBER 5: May 2020. ESHOLT, GUISELEY, HAWKSWORTH CIRCULAR. (BLUEBELL WOODS AND GOLF COURSES) A circular walk of 7½ miles. The walk description starts and ends at the Baildon Railway Station, but for those of you who are familiar with Baildon, there are opportunities for you to link into or out of the route at several other places – or to adapt it to your own interests. As this route has been written up during lockdown, we have tried to avoid narrow ginnels and footpaths. There is one short section of constrained ginnel during this route (as you leave Guiseley) but it is short enough to be able to reverse and operate a one-way system if someone is coming the other way. Remember to take care and stay at least two metres apart. As all cafes are closed, we recommend that you take water, or perhaps a coffee flask, and something to eat. ROUTE DESCRIPTION. Take the rising steps at the far end of the station platform and turn R to cross the footbridge over the railway line. Immediately turn Left on to a track and continue ahead to reach Roundwood Road. Cross when safe to do so and take the first road on the Left (Langley Lane), and Right again, soon, into Hollin Head. Continue on pavement to the end of the housing on Left and turn Left on track (Lonk House Lane). Cross stile and descend, bearing Left by War Memorial. Pass through two gates to descend on stony to track to Tong Park Reservoir (photo1).

  • A Hidden Landscape: Heaton Industry in the Eighteenth Century
    A Hidden Landscape: Heaton industry in the eighteenth century Derek Barker For centuries Heaton had consisted of a pattern of cottages, small farms and fields, some of which pre-dated the late eighteenth century’s Enclosure Act. Around the time of this Act local landowners began to exploit land, previously used solely for agriculture, by promoting extraction industries like quarrying, coal mining, limestone burning, and brick making. The financial rewards of such activities were aided by an improved infrastructure of turnpike roads and canals. After a century or so the profitability of these industrial activities declined in their turn. The expansion of Bradford, with the development of a rail link from Frizinghall in 1875, made sales of land for villa development more desirable. Mine shafts and quarries were filled in and waste tips removed. Heaton today is a quiet residential suburb in north Bradford whose ‘post- industrial landscape’ is so extremely post-industrial as to be virtually hidden. Predictably, much Heaton history was recorded, a century or more ago, by William Cudworth.1 In 2001 the late Stanley King published the only modern study of the township.2 Nobody will ever surpass the pride, love, and knowledge which this author possessed for the place of his birth. He studied very widely, and is reliable in his recording, but the lack of an index and detailed referencing can make the confirmation of individual facts from his necessary account quite difficult. Nonetheless readers may reasonably ask if I can now contribute anything new to these authors’ contributions. The first essay I wrote on local history, ‘Coal Mining in Heaton Woods’, was the result of interest stimulated by a woodland walk with an historian, the late Kath Alred.

  • Coach Road Fields, Guiseley
    Sustainability Assessment (Including Green Belt Purpose) Coach Road Fields, Guiseley A submission to Leeds City Council re site HG2-5 (2163, 1180 and 1311) by the Silverdale Action Group in conjunction with Aireborough Neighbourhood Forum November 2015 1 Overview Silverdale Action Group was established in February 2015 in response to the proposed development of the Coach Road Fields, site HG2-5 (2163, 1180 and 1131) and the Silverdale / Coach Road allotments (site HG2-6, 1113). We are a group of like-minded Guiseley residents who are extremely concerned about not only these sites but also the extensive over-development of the Aireborough area, in particular the fact that the vast majority (79%) of ear marked sites in Aireborough are Green Belt. A meeting of 150 concerned residents from the area showed the strength of feeling. Whilst we cannot accurately reflect every individual’s particular point of view we are confident that this report reflects the views of the vast majority of those living on the Silverdale estate including Coach Road, Esholt Avenue & surrounding areas. We share concerns with our partner groups across Aireborough about the impact on the environment, transport (road & rail), local infrastructure (schools, GP’s, leisure) of these developments. We feel little heed has been paid to the impact of extensive recent and ongoing developments in Aireborough itself and the neighbouring areas of Wharfedale and just over the border in Bradford. On the macro scale we have grave concerns about the initial 70,000 target which we feel has little or no evidence base to support it, in fact Office of National Statistics data suggests a figure closer to 45,000 is required.

  • May 2021 FOI 2387-21 Drink Spiking
    Our ref: 2387/21 Figures for incidents of drink spiking in your region over the last 5 years (year by year) I would appreciate it if the figures can be broken down to the nearest city/town. Can you also tell me the number of prosecutions there have been for the above offences and how many of those resulted in a conviction? Please see the attached document. West Yorkshire Police receive reports of crimes that have occurred following a victim having their drink spiked, crimes such as rape, sexual assault, violence with or without injury and theft. West Yorkshire Police take all offences seriously and will ensure that all reports are investigated. Specifically for victims of rape and serious sexual offences, depending on when the offence occurred, they would be offered an examination at our Sexual Assault Referral Centre, where forensic samples, including a blood sample for toxicology can be taken, with the victim’s consent, if within the timeframes and guidance from the Faculty for Forensic and Legal Medicine. West Yorkshire Police work with support agencies to ensure that all victims of crime are offered support through the criminal justice process, including specialist support such as from Independent Sexual Violence Advisors.
